What do you want returned if two or more Teachers Tie with the most number of Classes?

One or more teachers may tie with the most number of courses,. I know what I would do, in this situation, but what will your program accept? If it will only accept a string the answer is different that if it will accept a list or dictionary,.

Can I assume the for this example only one teacher will have the most number of classes?

The challenge expects a string as output, with the name of one teacher. So it's fine to make the assumption that there will not be a tie for the purposes of this challenge.
